a suggestion is answered by a re-

HE said to himself, when you had
come all The way from India to see
a woman, to find that she is giving
one of those Internal kettle drums
the very day you arrive.
Inside the house there was the
usual elbowing, well dressed crowd
that you see any afternoon in the

coats with pink carnations IN their
button holes logged old club men
in brown coats and white gardenlas
In the dining room hooked nosed

Dorothy alone in her ambertlnted
room.
When Captain Triton reached the
door. lie could see hrs. Lcnno1
standing in the midst Of a small
crowd of people, who all seemed to
be talking at once. By Jove! how
fetching she looked in her silver
gray gown, with huge bouquet
of orchids, and that gray tulle
thing she had on her head! Was
that a new fashion, Dick wondered,
for women to wear bonnets at thelI
own sat homes?' And there was
that ass Shortborn close beside her,
with particularly f;ltuous expires i

he. had come. Why, the fellow was
far gone-over head and ears;

ing talk, and low delicious laugh
And when woman is deuced good

wrong to make love in quite such q
serious way as he did, but, hang it!
she wasn't kitten, and she might
have known he wasn't Of the mar
rying SOFT.
All that was a year ago, but he
had not forgot her bit-worse
luck. And her Ictters-how awful
ly nice they were! how like herself!
Not spoony, like those he wrote to
her; but frank, humorous, and
thoroughly bon comaradc. Hang it
all! 1t was much easier to keep
heart. whole in London than in this
sultry hole. He had managed to
eyade compromising himself de-
fnitely, even when lie had gone to
bid Mrs. Lennox good.by, although
he had been perilously near pro-
posing to her that last evening; but
lie had got away, and nothing had
been said which would have tied
him down to all engagement.
Dick, in. his rowing life, had COM
mitted every folly except that
which he considered the hugest
felly of all-the folly of tying your
self TO one woman for life. He re-
membered how he had congratu-
lated himself OH all this when he
went on board the 'Jumna.' Was
he. the best looking fellow and
keenest sportsman in the 15Oth
Hussars, to knock under like any
snoony young sub, the moment lie

things we're changed. BE had
never bargained, somehow, for her
marrying again; he had got to look
upon her more or less as his own.
When she had written that letter
with all the illusions to Shorthorn
in it. his blood fairly boiled. he
didn't regret a bit the letter he had
written in reply, telling her he was
leaving India the very day he could
get leave, and asking her to be bis
wife. After all, why shouldn't be
narry9 He was over thirty, aud
he had had,as he remembered with
a smile, his fling The fellows in
bis regiment used to cbaff him and
call him casual, and said he never
did to. day what he could put of
till to morrow. But that was al
nonsense. He could make up his
mind like other men, even to mat
rimony. Aud here was her answer
to his letter: do not come too
late.' Well, he had got his leave
and would be with her, in three
weeks.
